POST #56 - EVALUATION QUESTION 4

This entire A2 project has been heavily reliant on modern technology and practices, many of which weren't even possible 20 years ago. Digital editing, online street views, and small scale storage are all commodities now that hadn't been accomplished in the 1990s. In each stage of production, I used many different technologies. RESEARCH PREVIOUS A-LEVEL VIDEOS Before we started going full into this project, we had a look at some A-Level videos that were made by previous years.

POST #57 - FEEDBACK TO FINAL CUT

TAZMIN LUCAS (via Messenger) - "mate i loved it ahahha" / "i literally cant fault it" / "the camera work was great the editing was interesting" / "it all makes sense and fits with your idea, which is very original" / "its perfect for what you wanted to create and it made me laugh" / "enjoyed it very much well done" ELLY BISHOP - I loved it. I think the camera work and style of the video makes it really fun to watch. The acting was really funny, and the memes that pop up on screen are really well done. They're also gone so fast that it makes you want to watch it again, so that you can catch everything again. Really funny. LILY RAY - I loved the idea - it was so individual and unique and excellently executed! The editing was also very different to anything else with all of the captions, memes and emojis so it made for a very fun video to watch. What i loved especially was the overacting of the characters that particul
